on horse to water by Zootman
zootman, you handled the business with this wall to wall sound. Great mixing as well. Now for the guitar, that did it totally for me. I thoroughly enjoyed your work here.

Kia ora, thanks, nice to get some feedback again on this. Yeah I was pretty happy with the wah guitar, felt a bit self indulgent having such a long coda but couldn't bring myself to edit it down. thanks again.

I got the urge to click an acoustic track, and I'm glad I did! Your vocals and the lyrics are wondrous! The guitar work made a perfect bed for these words, and it's tone is awesome. Really liked this song! Faved for sure!

on St James Infirmary ft Jack Teagarden by Zootman
This is a classic and pleasurable listen for sure! I'm loving the chilled out drum rhythms, as well as the dubby bass work. The vocals fit in just perfect with the vibe of the track. Amazing collaboration! Faved for sure!

I love it!

Thanks Mr rivus. Yep it's pretty basic and there's at least a couple of pretty obvious mistakes in the guitar but ah well. Thanks for the listen.

Yeah, this works! Darker version. Almost has some Blue Oyster Cult roots to it.

The echo you are using at the end, is it an echo pedal, digital plugin or what? I don't have an echo plugin, delay is cool and I use it a lot.

Yup, after a few listens, it's Pink Floyd meets Blue Oyster Cult. I like it! he Well done!

Thanks Wayne, you kind of spurred me into redoing this with your comment on the first version. I don't really have a real amp any more, wish I did. I just run everything through guitar rig 6 the free version. I can't speak highly enough of that vst it is amazing for all sorts of things. I tweaked one of the presets, can't remember which one off hand. Och aye amigo.

Love it. Reminds me of Danzing's black hell somehow as well as some Whyskey Dick goes electric. Solid work in two words.

Thanks man appreciate the listen and comment. I don't know those two bands, maybe heard of danzing, will have to check em out.

Oh hell yeah what a great start I like this kind of rock the vocals remind me of the seventies style a little bit. I'll try to come out my comfort zone so I'm going to put this next on my list the rock genre but right now I'm trying to work on it reggaeton but definitely you and danke are the creators in the Rock area

Nice to here your voice again Chris, real good track, you dropped the intro straight into the vox this time around the tweeks and Rock edge gives this a massive lift, and I like this better than the trap version although that's good you should get the Mrs backing on this a third version
Zootman
Zootman replied 22nd Dec 2021 - 4 years ago
Ha ha cheers Paul, the first hurdle is getting her to listen to it lol. Yeah I kinda liked this version. Probably should have worked on the arrangement a bit more, I feel like it capitulated a bit at the end, maybe should have dropped it back into the rock to finish but couldn't really be assed!

zootman2u, I hear the extra work you've put in. Don't you worry anything about mixing with those headphones. You got the job done and done well. Drums punchy vocals strong. This balanced mix made this song a great listen.

Zootman replied 16th Dec 2021 - 4 years ago
Hi there, thanks very much. I did try a bit more production on this one with some compression on drums and vox and some saturation. I sometimes find it hard to hear the effects of the compression but I think I'm training my ear to it a little now.

Wow..impressive! I realy dig the style of music. Pleasant tone on your voice, fits perfect with your music. For a headphone mix its good. My only preference is to maybe brighten up the guitar a tad bit. Other than that, stellar production and performance.

Hi there, thanks very much for the constructive comment. I did brighten the guitar a little and upped them in the mix a fraction. Cheers mate, have a good day.

first of all ... faved from the first notes ... brilliant sounded and played track ... great mix on my standard and that voice of yours is absolutely fantastic for this alt/rock style ... just a note in parentheses: a quiet background vox could still come to the chorus ... (I've been humming myself ...) :-)
fistbump, Danke

Hey there, thanks heaps man I was kind of hoping you'd hear and actually like this, I think I had you in mind a bit. In fact I was half in mind to ask you to play some guitar! I wasn't sure about this one cause between producing this version and the original it became hard to listen objectively after a while. Lastly, most times I listen to your work I end up humming melodies to myself:)

Another cool version ... cant remember apart from the different beat what else has changed but I love this one too : ) (will go have another listen to the first)
Zootman
Zootman replied 15th Dec 2021 - 4 years ago
Quick off the mark mate! Added guitars, new bass (was quite pleased with that), upped the tempo a fraction, changed vox processing and arrangement a little. Still needs a tweak here and there. Cheers for your support Ian :)
